Exhibition of work
At last..... pictures of our recent exhibition at Keswick's Moot Hall. It poured with rain all day; whether or not this affected the number of visitors we had is hard to say, but we were kept busy most of the time, and people seemed pleased with what they saw.
A selection......some crewel work, Sinamay flowers from a workshop with Sara Gadd,
a vessel sculpted from felt, by Marilyn, and an intricate patchwork rose cushion by Debbie.
Stern-looking owls........
Cheeky mice...............
Fabric boxes made during a workshop led by Marilyn......
These dolls were the results of workshop led by Debbie. Each one is meant to reflect the persona of its creator!
Gloria led this workshop, using the Stitch magazine article 'Dandy birds'
Felt by, (I think) Marilyn.
Welcoming friends from the Quilters' Guild......
A variety of offerings........
Embellished felt..................
The Tombola..................
Sales table.....................
Lovely tile designs, made on a Quilters' Guild day that several members attended, taught by Yvonne Brown. They used a reverse applique technique, cotton fabric, heat- reactive felt, a soldering iron and a heat gun!
These Little Owls were made on Lizzie Wall's workshop.
Debbie's (I think) patchwork
Lots of tea and cake.....................
Phew! A good day!
We were pleasantly surprised by how many different techniques we'd worked on over two years. We had a lovely day, and can look forward to next year. We have our AGM on September 18th, followed by a Show and Tell session in the afternoon.
